Cultivation Pet Shop

The first thing that happened in Lin Fan's store every morning was the pick up for the pets that had been left the previous day.

It didn't take long to finish this process because there were only ten people that had left their pets in the store for training yesterday.

As soon as they received their pets, many of them wanted to test out the new abilities their pets gained to see if yesterday's results were a fluke or not. However, most of them looked at Lin Fan with a wary look.

There was only one young man who didn't seem to mind Lin Fan looking at him as he said, "Alright buddy, let's see what you can do now."

His pet looked back at Lin Fan with a scared look, but who told it to have a contract with this young man?

In the end, the pet had to listen to what the young man asked it to do and started gathering life energy around it.

When Lin Fan saw this, he naturally put a stop to it immediately.

Raising out his hand, he pressed down which caused an invisible force to fall down on the young man's pet, squashing it into the ground.

The young man was shocked when he saw this. It wasn't just the young man, all of the people around were shocked because they couldn't understand what kind of force this was. They couldn't sense any life energy coming from the space around the pet, so just what kind of force was this?

After squashing it for a few seconds, Lin Fan pulled back his hand and said, "Don't make a mess in this store. If you do, I'll kick you out and ban you."

The young man wanted to say something, but his words were stuck in his throat.

The pet on the ground had tears in its eyes as it thought, "It was the master's fault, why are you taking it out on me?" However, it would never dare to say such a thing to Lin Fan's face.

After taking care of them, Lin Fan released the pressure on the pet before tapping the board beside him and saying, "If you want to test your skills, there's the arena for you to test in."

When they heard this, the people who had just received their pets realized something and they quickly paid the fee for the arena and Lin Fan brought them up.

Instead of giving them the main arena that was in the center, he gave them the rooms that had been set up on the side. These rooms had the same ability as the main arena, only it wasn't in the same prominent place as the arena.

Instead of being in the center of the second floor like the main arena was, what happened inside these rooms were broadcast by monitors instead which Lin Fan had turned on for the people who had come to watch.

After taking care of that, Lin Fan went back down to prepare for the next group of people who would be training their pets.

In total, there were fifty cages in this shop, which meant that Lin Fan actually had space to train fifty pets. The only reason that he had chosen to train ten yesterday was to give the illusion that each training spot in his store would be a rare opportunity.

Today he was planning on increasing it to twenty, but even with twenty slots, there were too many people here that would pay for that.

Since that was the case, Lin Fan decided to use a lottery system. He would let everyone draw out a ball with a number on it from a bin and then he would roll a random number that corresponded with a ball. The person that had that ball would be the one that would receive the training spot.

That was at least what Lin Fan had planned on doing first, but there were two interruptions that came before that.

The first was Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao coming up to the counter.

Lin Fan wasn't surprised to see them since they had been coming here for three days straight now, so he just calmly looked at them and waited for them to state their intentions.

Qiao Yi Fei was the first one to act as she took out a small item that she placed in front of Lin Fan before saying, "Here, this is for you."

Lin Fan looked at it before asking, "What is it?"

Qiao Yi Fei pointed at the top of the small rectangular item and said, "Look carefully and you'll see."

Lin Fan picked up the small rectangular item and then he realized that this was his Hunter License.

He had thought that it would take several more days before he would receive it, but it seemed like the Hunters Organization was much more efficient than he thought.

What he didn't know was that he was a special case.

Old woman Mao and old man Qiao had specially rushed out his card since they wanted to make sure that he was marked as one of theirs, especially after they had heard about his shop. The other three who had passed with him, the paperwork for their license hadn't even been started yet because they had focused on getting Lin Fan's license made first.

Lin Fan looked over the license, but since it didn't look that special to him, he just put it away in his Storage Ring.

Seeing that he didn't appreciate the license at all, Qiao Yi Fei turned her head and gave a snort.

Early this morning, old man Qiao and old woman Mao had gathered both her and Mao Tao together, telling them to work together to give this license to Lin Fan, which was why they had come over together.

Mao Tao on the other hand didn't mind and after seeing Lin Fan put his license away, she asked, "Owner Lin, what type of hunter do you plan on becoming?"

Lin Fan looked at her with a confused look and asked, "What do you mean by what type?"

Mao Tao didn't mind this and patiently explained, "Every hunter has something that they specialize in, which is why we say that there are different types of hunters. For example, Shi Yan who was your examiner, he's a Ruins Hunter which means that he specializes in tracking down ruins and exploring them."

Lin Fan gave a soft snort when heard Shi Yan's name. After all, when he and Shi Yan had parted, they hadn't parted on good terms. Lin Fan knew that Shi Yan would try to cause trouble for him, so he had a bad impression of him.

Lin Fan then thought for a bit before asking, "What type of hunter are you?"

Mao Tao was surprised to hear Lin Fan asking about her, but then she said in a proud voice, "I'm a Gourmet Hunter, just like my master. We hunt down different delicacies and give people the best meals of their lives."

Lin Fan gave a nod before falling into thought once again. After another pause, he suddenly said, "Alright, I'll be a Gourmet Hunter too."

Both Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao were caught off guard when Lin Fan said this.

With the amazing training that his shop had demonstrated, they were both certain that Lin Fan would become a Beast Hunter or something similar to that. They never thought that he would take a complete 180 and become a Gourmet Hunter out of all things.

Qiao Yi Fei was the first one to come back to her senses as she asked in a doubtful voice, "Can you even cook?"

Lin Fan looked at her with a faint smile and said, "Won't you know in the future?"

Both of them still had looks of doubt on their faces, but since this was Lin Fan's decision, there really wasn't anything that they could say to him.

Lin Fan's decision was actually based on what he needed in the future.

When his subordinates came up from the lower realm and started his food business here, he would be able to use his status as a Gourmet Hunter to help promote that business. There was no need to use his status as a hunter to promote this pet store since the abilities of the system already set this store apart from the rest. That was already enough for his pet store to become famous.

It was different for his food business because that business wasn't something that was run by the system, which meant that it didn't have a cheat that made it the best. Lin Fan had tasted Mao Tao's cooking and he knew that it was better than the imitation that he made.

The only thing special about his food business was that he had recipes that others didn't. If it wasn't for the fact that no one else knew how to make the food products that he sold, perhaps someone would have already swooped in and taken his business.

As a Gourmet Hunter, he would have access to the food knowledge stored in the Hunters Organization and he could use that to develop his own recipes.

Now to mention that he had already seen how strong the advertising effect of being a Gourmet Hunter was on the first day he opened the store. He had seen just how influential the name Ghost Chef had been.

It wouldn't hurt to have the same kind of advertising for his food business.

After deciding what type of hunter he was about to become, Lin Fan prepared to start drawing for training spots.

However, before he could, there was someone who ran into the store who stopped him.
